John Roland Rudisill
He was a member of Hickory Grove Baptist Church in Greensboro and a loving husband, grandfather, brother and friend. He was an avid builder; working with wood was his passion. His favorite show was "This Old House" which he watched every chance he could. He enjoyed gardening and cooking fresh vegetables from his garden. He worked and volunteered with children's youth groups as children always put a smile on his face, especially when it came to his grandchildren.
Survivors include his wife, Canary Picket Rudisill of the home; stepson, Bryce Lawrie and wife Dana of Greensboro; four grandchildren; sisters, Yvonne R. White and husband Dennis of Mebane; Jane R. Bowman of Mebane, Tanya R. McManus and husband Ron of Mebane; brothers, Martin H. Rudisill and wife Jan of Burlington and Michael E. Rudisill and wife Marty of High Point; and many loving nieces and nephews.
He was preceded in death by his parents, Michael E. Rudisill Sr. and Theo Frazier Rudisill; and a sister, Frazier R. Saylor.
A memorial service will be held at 2 p.m. Friday, Sept. 14, 2012 at the West Burlington Church of God with the Rev. Olin Tatum. Visitation will be held one hour prior to the service at the church.
